"This is out of the Weight Watchers magazine July/August 2008 issue. Food note says: instead of basil mayonnaise, use an equal amount of chopped fresh cilantro in step 1, plus a squeeze of fresh lime juice. I love cilantro so this is the way I make them."

Great lunch !! I did use regular floured tortillas and left out the salt. We especially liked the dressing on these, as this made for a nice quickie lunch. Great use for the veggies, including some from my garden. 5 stars !!! Made for Zaar Stars.

Love the fresh basil spread. Tons of flavor in that! I always use low-carb or low fat wraps. Too many calories and fat in regular tortillas. A very satisfying lunch!

I made these for lunch today and we enjoyed them. I bought roast beef from the deli and since it tends to be saltier than home-cooked I omitted the salt; we didn't miss it. I thought the proportion of fresh basil to mayonnaise might be excessive but used the amount as written and it turned out very nicely and was quite flavorful. We are always looking to increase the fiber in our diet so I used low-carb/high-fiber whole wheat tortillas. Thank you for sharing, I will make these again.

I could put the basil mayo on everything - that was so good!! I made this as listed but there was no way that I could wrap the 7" tortilla around all of the yummy fillings. It was still easy enough to eat but even if it wasn't, I would have enjoyed it anyway. Made for PRMR. Thanks TeresaS! :)

Delicious! I used the basil/mayo option, and really enjoyed this. I used spinach instead of lettuce since that was what I had at the time. Can't wait to try this with the cilantro/lime version as well. This was quick and easy enough for me to put together on my lunch break and still grab a pic. Thanks for sharing a wonderful recipe! Made for Zaar Stars tag game.

This was really tasty and so easy to make. The "sauce' was awesome! I used spinach instead of lettuce and fresh cracked pepper - yum ! And I had to make extra for DH to take for lunch {he liked this so much}. Thanks TeresaS for another winning recipe - made for Spring PAC 2012!

<p>? Hi! My name is Teresa.? My husband and I like to take RV trips but it seems lately we just us it for vintage motorcross races. I enjoy hiking, snowshoeing, have done some rock climbing but age is creeping up on my poor old bones. Anything to do with the outdoors I enjoy, so why do I live in rainy Washington state? We have 2 wonderful children, both grown. My son lives in LA and my daughter and her husband recently moved back in the area with their little boy...our grandson... who just turned?5 years old. We have a granddaughter who lives close by...she just turned 23 this year. She's a sweetheart.? Life is good when you have a son and a?daughter and they?gift?you with a granddaughter and grandson. :)??</p>
